You are such a gracious hostess, Christine. Your table looks beautiful and there is lots of great food - great company, too, I'm sure. Merry Christmas and may 2015 bring you much joy, peace, and good health.

Christine you are the best hostess, ever! I'm not good taking pics when I have the food on and company. I'm always soo busy! But you my friend, you took wonderful photos of your gorgeous table and group. The dishes are my fave.Merry Christmas,FABBY

Christine, your home is stunning and your parties are always filled with the most fabulous food. Everything looks amazing and I am sure your guests had a wonderful time. I wish you and your family a very Merry and Blessed Christmas.

Christine, your party looks wonderful; good food and a nice group of smiling faces. I LOVE your dinnerware. Anything with birdies always catches my eye. Thank you for joining me for tea during this very busy season and Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!

Christine: I purposely went looking for your post today, hoping to find your beautiful dishes paired with one of those wonderful buffet suppers you prepare. Everything is just perfect. I just bought this year Lenox Winter Greetings Plaid, and the pattern complements your dishes beautifully. I think I'm finally going to have an excuse to add some of these pretty birds to my table. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Christine, This is such a beautiful and joyful Christmas celebration that you created for your lovely family. The food looks incredibly delicious and your table looks sumptuous with the amazing array of festive dishes. I am wishing you and your family a very Happy and healthy New Year..... Candy

Beautiful tablesetting, Christine - love your dishes. The food looks absolutely delicious - the best part is the picture with the beautiful, happy faces of your family. I do appreciate you sharing with A Return to Loveliness and hope you have a blessed New Year,Kathy

That’s quite a nice party. From the pics everything is looking so organize and perfect. Kudos to you. I am also into planning for corporate events and really want to become a successful planner one day.
